What we can offer you

Our dedicated people mean that we can be here for every dog and cat.

Whether you are sharing an office with our dogs or directly caring for our cats, our animals show their appreciation every day.

There is no better reward than seeing the difference you make to the lives of our dogs and cats first-hand; although we also provide a wide range of employee benefits, including:

  • 28 days of annual leave (plus 8 days paid public holidays) per year
  • Generous pension contributions up to 10% employer contribution
  • Free healthcare cash plan, where you can claim for a range of treatment including dental (£100), optical (£100), physiotherapy, chiropody and acupuncture (£325) every year

During the Coronavirus restrictions, our animal-facing staff continued to work on site and our office based staff worked from home.

We are currently operating a hybrid working model with our office-based staff splitting their time between site based and home working.

We believe this will support office-based staff to maintain the benefits of home working, while allowing for collaboration and interaction with our animal-facing staff and maintaining a connection to our cause.

As such, you'll be expected to work in our Battersea office for at least 50% of your working week.

So, if you are passionate about dogs, cats and about our work, then we'd like to hear from you.
